Every design for Partille

At Partille manor much is gathered of what made the place what it is – an old junction just east of Gothenburg, crossed by the E20 and with trains stopping along the Western Main Line. The pulse of the city meets a calmer Västergötland daily life here, and Partille today is both the main town of its municipality and part of a growing Gothenburg.

Around the built-up area the waters lie close. Furåstjärnen, Prästtjärnen and Ecklasjön carry the old names onward, while Lättjärnen and Flatevattnet draw anyone wanting to get out into the forest a little way from the railway and the motorway. It is a district where the history and the woodland hang together.

On the map you see how the railway and the lakes wind through the landscape, with the manor as a fixed point in it all. The map t-shirt of Partille catches exactly that mixture – the noise of trains from the main line and the stillness by a tarn the same afternoon.
